Who can participate?
Public, private and faith-based schools, education managers, school networks, educators, families and suitable partners can explore participation. The scope and timing of any initial cohort will be confirmed through programme arrangements.

Are laptops or equipment already being distributed?
Computer access and ICT facilities are priorities for partner engagement. Availability, eligibility, specifications, payment arrangements and delivery are subject to confirmed agreements.
